I'm still on the last Intel mac mini where you could upgrade RAM. Sitting pretty with 64gb, I'm not upgrading any time soon.
Those things have held their value well, largely because of the RAM. Idly pondered grabbing one when the M1 came along, but the price was still strong. Dunno what they're like now, mind. I'd be tempted as a replacement for my 2014, but honestly, it still works just fine considering it's only got 8GB RAM.
